I used to service his Jeeps when he was at home in his Peirmont, NY location during the late 80’s. One of the most gracious people I’ve ever met. Gave the whole shop tickets to a Jones Beach show he was doing. Always a smile on his face.

His female groupies were always hotties too. :-)

A Pirate Looks at Forty was written specifically for me. At least that’s how I look at it.

There are only two groups that I have seen 5 times: Lynyrd Skynyrd and Jimmy Buffett. Favorite Buffett songs: A Pirate Looks at Forty and Death of an Unpopular Poet.

I've seen Jimmy Buffett live probably a dozen times. Always puts on an amazing show. A leftie, but mostly from the environmental perspective, which is fine for a good-natured hippie.

Incredible business man - parlayed his single Top-10 hit over forty years ago into a net worth of more than half a billion.

Get well, Jimmy.

I know "5 O'Clock Somewhere" is technically an Alan Jackson song, but this comedian's analysis of the song quite literally has me laughing out loud every time I hear this...

Maybe he can tour with Katie Couric and they can sing a duet about their health problems

“Later, he was asked how he would like to be remembered. Buffet said he would like to be known as the guy who “had a good time and made a lot of people happy.”

I’m pretty sure that’s safe to say

Not a fan of Buffet. But lots of people love him for whatever reason. I just want to know if he is going to Cuba to get that great socialized medicine he always preaches about.

I have been to a bunch of free for me Buffet concerts here in MA.

what I hated the most was when the the concert actually started and the tailgating ended.

Buffet is a tool..

With a net worth somewhere around $700 million, he’s done alright for himself.

Songs you don't know by heart, with his daughter Delaney during the COVID shutdown: Death of an Unpopular Poet (with background story), and my dog likes it:

Jimmy Buffett - Death of An Unpopular Poet - Directed by Delaney

A Pirate Looks at 40 and background:

I met him at his restaurant in Key West. He was gracious and was impressed when we told him we were fraternity brothers in NC. He was a Kappa Sig at So Miss IIRC. Yes, we did go to Faustos and get some chocolate milk.

His stories of Key West in his early years were the stuff of legend.

I’ve seen his studio and house on Key West, but never the man himself. That pretty much makes me famous.
